Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully read, 2nd Samuel 18. David stood at the side of the gate, while his men defeated Absalom’s army. King David’s son is slain, by Joab and his armor-bearers. Though God gave him victory in battle, because of his sin, David’s wrought with sorrow over the death of Absalom. “32 The king said to the Cushite, “Is it well with the young man Absalom?” And the Cushite answered, “May the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up against you for evil be like that young man.” 33 And the king was deeply moved and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And as he went, he said, “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!”” 2 Samuel 18:32-33, English Standard Version (ESV). Sin really is like cancer, in that the destruction comes back to persons unexpectedly at diverse times. Though David is king serving under God’s protection, his sin has caused him to be disciplined for not raising Absalom, with a godly upbringing.
Thanksgiving devotional series by Pastor, Glen Aycock;
Jesus is our leader, we need to raise our children, live and treat others with that in mind.. Continue to follow Jesus, keeping the first thing first, that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. “[Book One The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked] Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.” Psalm 1:1-2 ESV. As you serve God avoid sin, making Jesus Lord of your life.
